Yeah right now Democrats are not in power. MAGA is running all 3 branches so yeah, I don't have a lot of open criticism and I sure as fuck ain't giving an inch to them or people who sweep for them. I don't care it makes me a partisan. I could levy the same on you, your criticms is scant and always couched in "Dems also bad!".
That's not a reason to overlook all the horrible policies they both use in lockstep. That's not a reason to allow them to use the two-party system as a way to nullify & ignore democracy.
Ahh yes, the Democrats famously tried to steal an election 6 years ago. How could I forget. You can cope with "5%" but I think the fact Democrats actually abided by the Constitution and do not constantly say our system is rigged, I mean, give them 10% at least right? Right? Cmon brother. Bill of Rights? The peaceful transfer of power was delayed for the first time in American history.
This is the same government that builds nukes, runs bio-weapons-labs, drops bombs on kids worldwide, etc... and yes, even when the Democrats are running things! They don't deserve support, even if their messaging is better or they have a marginally better track record in places you or I care about.
Ahh so now we're onto "they're better, but only marginal". You know what, I'll take it, now it's just a degrees argument.
Maybe your cynicism and skepticism makes you "cogent", whatever that means, but to me it just comes off as petulant. I was a libertarian in 2008 as well but seeing how performative and ineffectual that all was is kinda what made me the partisan you see today.
That last paragraph, I'm sorry to say, contains zero actual solutions. Not a one practical or attainable, as much as you feel superior blaming the electorate. All of them to have any chance of happening are going to require working within the system we already have and electing people who agree to do them. It's the "Firebomb a Walmart" tweet in more words.
You didn't even mention some of the most systemic issues! The way we vote with FPTP is a huge deal, but then again you don't think gerrymandering is an issue either.
I'll stick to my strategy of supporting the, as you said, better governing people who are willing to pass better legislation and make better laws. The libs will continue to be the adults for the rest of you.
